A whole day, in seconds

Arrive in the afternoon. Wake up to the mist.

Scroll slowly: the light passes through both cabins, from late afternoon to the first coffee. If you stop, the day carries on by itself.

Arrival

The afternoon light is still high. Drop your bags and open the wooden door.

The time here is yours

The art of not being in a hurry.

Wake up without an alarm. Have lunch when you’re hungry. Watch the light change over the hills until it’s night.

Experience

Here, the clock is optional.

Two cabins, one mountain and no hurry. This is what we want your time here to be.

In the plans

A swim, without looking at the time.

A 6 × 3 metre pool, planned for the middle of the land, halfway between the two cabins. For warm afternoons, for feet in the water at the end of the day, for doing nothing else.

Being planned

Warmth on the skin, lightness in everything else.

A small sauna is part of the vision for the retreat. It is still being planned, so we don’t promise it: we’ll say so here, and to everyone who has already booked, when it is real.

The spirit of the place

An open window and a day with no plans.

Read one more page. Linger over breakfast. Follow the sun from window to window, and let the green be the best part of the day.
